The tropical area has a lot of herbal medicines such as (AV), (AC), and (SM). All the three have a unique potential effect as an antibacterial and wound-healing promoter. The aim of this study is to explore the role of AV, AC, and SM on the skin wound infected with methicillin-resistant (MRSA). Forty-five adult female Sprague Dawley rats weighing 250-300 grams were divided into 5 groups. All the groups were exposed to two round full-thickness punch biopsy and infected with MRSA. The group C was the control group/untreated; group BC was treated with base cream/without extract; group AV was treated with 75% AV cream; group AC was treated with 75% AC cream, and group SM was treated with 75% SM cream. The wounds were observed on days 5, 10, and 15. The healing of skin wounds was measured by a percentage of closure, skin tensile strength, and histopathology. The result showed that AV, AC, and SM have a similar potential effect on healing in the wound that was infected with MRSA compared to the groups C and BC ( < 0.05). It shows that all the three herbal formulations can be used as the alternative therapy to the wound infected with MRSA.
热带地区有许多草药,如(AV)、(AC)和(SM)。这三种草药都具有独特的抗菌和促进伤口愈合的潜在作用。本研究的目的是探讨AV、AC和SM对耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)感染的皮肤伤口的作用。将45只体重250 - 300克的成年雌性Sprague Dawley大鼠分为5组。所有组均接受两次全层环形打孔活检并感染MRSA。C组为对照组/未治疗组;BC组用基础乳膏治疗/不含提取物;AV组用75%的AV乳膏治疗;AC组用75%的AC乳膏治疗,SM组用75%的SM乳膏治疗。在第5天、第10天和第15天观察伤口。通过伤口闭合百分比、皮肤抗张强度和组织病理学来测量皮肤伤口的愈合情况。结果表明,与C组和BC组相比,AV、AC和SM对MRSA感染伤口的愈合具有相似的潜在作用(<0.05)。这表明这三种草药制剂均可作为MRSA感染伤口的替代治疗方法。
